    Trying to narrow down the finalists for the new paint color for the bedroom. I decided to try a a gold color for the room instead because our house is considered a colonial style so I was thinking about keeping in that theme, plus we don't have any rooms that are already that in that color range.

    Mommy

    After painting one wall in our bedroom red,................deep red.  Which, mind you is quite stunning (in my eye).  I am not allowed near the paint store.    But, I go any way.  My favorite area is the OOPS paint,  cans brought back because someone else did not like the color.  Somehow, I always find delightful colors there.  So maybe Mommy, I should not be a consultant.................  I love working with throw away things.  It is easy to go buy new, but to repurpose, reuse something is the ultimate shopping challenge.

    But, if you are asking me,   I think gold would be fabulous!  Anything you do in curtains, bead spreads can easily have flecks of gold that will pick up the color.  And so vibrant to wake up to..  Counting on some house and garden pics soon Mommy!.

    Yep, throw in all of the depression! I don't have TEs, but they must be miserable. Throw then in, too.

    Throw in all the stupid stuff people say to us... maybe some of the people, too.

    Hey Ducky pleased to see and really hope I can give you a big hug when we are over your way in October. And for others i will be travelling from Indiana to Washington DC and then to PA early October. If you live on route let me know. Hope to meet some BC friends near Washington and again near Philly. Then we are driving north through Vermont to Montreal.

    Now I just would like to put my back pain on the bonfire. Had epidural injection in spine yesterday and it was horrible. Cat 1 is with me this morning,

    hugs to all.

    Lucy it was so great seeing the boys.......I took care of them when they were babies, so we became very close......my grandson Kevin went to CAr'nagie Mellon University in Pittsburgh..''.....he was the team quarterback and they won the Championship in his Sr. year...........We use to drive both ways to Pittsburgh from Philly to watch him play.....we did this for 4 years....it took us 5 hours up, and 5 hours home........he is such a joy and so is his brother Pat who graduated from Penn State University.............

    Kaileen will be getting married in November, and she is a delight.......she works at Children's Hospital in Phila.........in the Neo=Natal Intensive Care Unit.................she is a nurse and graduated from Catholic University of America in Washington D.C.

    My daughter works for GlaxoSmithkline Pharma company....and her husband is an Engineer and he workd for Lockheed Martin...doing confidential government work with the Navy........
